Tonight the Hooligan team will celebrate the 20th Anniversary release of End of the Century: The Story of the Ramones. 🎶

Our very own Kane Platt and Chinagraph/Hooligan had the extraordinary honor of advising the talented Directors/Editors Michael Gramaglia and Jim Fields and Editor, John Gramaglia on this film. Kane also attended Slam Dance in 2003 to assist in promoting the film. 🎞️

Produced By the incredible Rosemary Quigley and Chinagraph/Hooligan. We are all really excited to revisit this remarkable film tonight!

On August 16th 1974 The Ramones played their first gig at CBGB and with it changed the course of music history. In August of 2004, the critically acclaimed, Grammy-nominated and only authorized documentary on the band was released in theaters around the world.

“It’s a dark movie. It’s accurate, it left me disturbed.” - Johnny Ramone

About the Film:
Heralded by Rolling Stone as “the best music documentary of its time,” the film follows three decades of recording, touring, and antics by America’s first and most notorious punk band, the Ramones. The film was edited by John Gramaglia and directed by Michael Gramaglia and Jim Fields. It took five years to shoot and edit the epic film, which premiered at CBGB’s, the notorious NYC music club. End of the Century remains the band’s only authorized documentary.

So, what’s in the cellar, Kane?

We asked our resident wine steward how he plans to celebrate tonight’s premiere of “Promised Land” on ABC.

“We will watch with Michael Cuesta on his large projector — all vaxed and boosted — with a bottle of Collet Extra Brut Champagne. It’s not from Sonoma, but it is from France’s oldest Champagne collective, which gave power to the small farmers against the big Champagne Houses. It’s dry as the desert and it almost disappears on the tongue before you can swallow.”

Bottoms up!

And now for something completely different from Kane Platt…

On Monday, January 24th 10/9c, tune in to ABC for the premiere of "Promised Land," a new series he edited with longtime collaborator Micheal Cuesta.

It's an epic, generation-spanning drama about two Latinx families vying for wealth and power in California's Sonoma Valley.

You can also stream "Promised Land" on Hulu.

“The Surge at Mount Sinai,” a feature-length documentary edited by our very own Kane Platt, is streaming now on discovery+.

"You would hear about what medical workers were going through but you don’t get a full appreciation of it all until you see the depth of their despair and sacrifice. If we could capture just how important these responders are and how they rose to the occasion with the utmost compassion, then we did our job.”

-- Kane Platt
